Arizona Basketball 2025-2026 - Tommy's Best Team?

[GatorAZ]

I keep forgetting LeBron’s son is on this team.

Arizona with a super impressive, second half against Alabama

 

[GatorAZ]

Burries was the star of the game but Tobe Awaka continues to be the X factor for this team. He’s Charles Oakley reincarnated as a 6th man in college.

That 2nd half was a flat out ass kicking, the Cats just bullied them. I saw at one point we had 20 offensive boards to their ZERO. Bonkers.

This team is really really really good. I know Miller had some teams with a lot of NBA talent, but as far as a team that can go whip some butt in college... this is the best squad since like... early/mid 2000s with Lute?

 

[Phrazbit]

Having a lot of underclassmen who expect to be in the NBA in a year or two is a problem, you kinda have to give them minutes because it's part of your recruiting profile but if they're bad you screw yourself and if they're just kinda decent it doesn't help much because they bail after a year anyway.

But this year we've got a really good mix, upperclassmen in the starting line and the bench, the freshmen that expect to go pro right away are actually playing at a level that speaks to that and the roster is clearly designed for a play style, smother teams in the paint on both ends. A great college basketball strategy.

 

[Carolinacacti]

This team has speed, power and shooting.

 

[Lefty]

Burries is the key factor. If he can consistently play like he has the last five games, the UofA can beat any team.

Didn’t expect Aristode to look like a dead eye shooter.

Neither did the staff. Sight for sore eyes

He might be one and done and he's not even a starter

Can we talk about how ridiculous this has become? I've joked before that LeBron should play with Bryce at Arizona next season, and it looks like that could be a possibility if LeBron wants it

He is allowed (Nnaji) to play in the NCAA because he never played in an NBA game

I'm aware. Neither has LeBron.

I frankly dont know where this whole thing ends. The NCAA is nothing more than a minor speed bump at this point

Correction - I meant to say he has never played in an NBA game. That is the cut off

Nnaji has also played professionally.

The rules are constantly evolving, so who knows where the end is, if there is one

They gave him 4 years eligibility too.

And Kyree Walker at 25 is trying to do the same thing

They're probably getting paid more in NIL these days than overseas or G-League.

The system is broken and there are no guard rails in place to stop this

 

[Ronin]

Arizona freshman class has exceeded expectations during spectacular start

Tommy Lloyd trusting his freshman class has paid huge dividends during a 12-0 start.
